But there are only a limited number of OGG portable players while mp3 players are ubiquitious. I personally download the flac/shn files AND the vbr mp3. The flacs I play on my home setup and the vbr's I use directly in my IPOD. Of course I can create vbr mp3's from the FLAC files, but this saves me several steps (given that most of the mp3 files already have the song names etc. filled in--in fact, I use foobar2000 to create the FLAC tags automatically from the MP3 file tags, saving even more steps). And I like the fact that the vbr mp3's are created with a good quality encoder (LAME).
